Today’s post marks a bit of a change in style. I’ve decided
that I’m only going to write commentary on performances that were particularly
noteworthy. At the end of the post, I’ll provide a list of the other
performances, and I’ll try to find a link to a youtube video, too.
So guess who performs the first ever SYTYCD krump routine?
Travis and his partner Martha. That’s right, Travis is the first person to show America (at least, that portion
of America that watches SYTYCD) krump. The choreographer is, of course, Lil' C, also making his first appearance. And the third first? During the judges’
critique, Travis uses the word ‘buck,” marking the first of many times that
word is uttered on SYTYCD. If I had to guess who first used the word “buck,”
Travis wouldn’t even make the list.
